60 Years ago today Feb 9, 1964 : the day Beatlemania swept the United States.
The excitement began at 8 :12 PM, EST , when Ed Sullivan on CBS TV studio gave his famous introduction: "Now yesterday and today our theater's been jammed with newspapermen and hundreds of photographers from all over the nation, and these veterans agreed with me that the city never has the excitement stirred by these youngsters from Liverpool, who call themselves The Beatles. Now tonight, you're gonna twice be entertained by them. Right now, and again in the second half of our show. Ladies and gentlemen, The Beatles. Let's bring them on." The Beatles began by singing “All my Loving “ followed by “ Till there was you “ . The crowd literally went into a frenzy with their rendition of “ She loves you “ followed by “ I saw her standing there and finally their #1 hit “ I want to hold your hand “ which was drowned out by the screams of the audience. A record 73 million Americans in 23 million households which was 34 % of the US population tuned in making it the most watched TV show in the history of US Television, a record that has yet to broken to this day . Beatlemania had finally swept the US by storm ! The Musical British Invasion of US was now official !!! Six decades Later , Beatles popularity still continues today ! Only such authentic and meaningful Music that truly nourishes your Soul can last generations. Unquestionably, Beatles is and will remain the Greatest Band in the History of Rock and Roll !!! #drsuneja, #beatles , #beatlemania, #edsullivanshow, #musicislife, #beatlesfan #music🎵🎶🎵🎼🎶🙂🙂🙂❤️❤️❤️
